Question

Examlex · Accepted Answer

The Answer is Three of the most prominent interest groups in Canada today are MADD Canada (Mothers Against Drunk Driving), the Canadian Federation of students, and the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (more examples are listed on page 410). The first commonality that these groups have is their ability to run successful, well-focused advocacy campaigns through a variety of methods, including both paid advertising and earned media. A second commonality is their shared ability to clearly set and define legislative goals for politicians to take action on. Finally, all three organizations have established themselves as public opinion leaders on their subject, partaking in speaking events or offering educational material and programs in order to demonstrate their knowledge in their area of advocacy.
